The card Andy found in the mailbox was colorful and rather heavy. On the backside was a collage of several happy men cut together, some in silly costumes like a knight in armor or a guy in a whole body rhino costume.
Andy was just about to throw the card away, when he hesitated; it was true, his life was kind of a drag lately. Ever since he moved together with his girlfriend Lucy, he felt kind of frustrated. They argued a lot, and he had the feeling that they were so caught up in their everyday doings that he secretly feared the relationship could soon grind to a crashing halt.
Some silly adventure resort could really be a good idea let some steam off!
He briefly wondered if this was some kind of gay cruise, since there were only well-built guys on the picture, but upon further inspection found no further indication or male-only note on the card. Perhaps, he mused, all the diversity thoughts went into getting models with different skin colors and ethnicity, since that clearly happened.
He decided not to show Lucy. If they were really gonna win it, it would be a good surprise!
Andy quickly filled in their names, and looked at the choices at the bottom of the card: He could check one of the following:
[ ] Be part of a safari in Afrika that stumbles on a tribal ritual
[ ] Feel like a knight: experience authentic medieval times
[ ] See society from a different perspective right here in your neighbourhood
[ ] ____ (You have your own idea? Just write them right here and we will make it real!)
After a bit of consideration, Andy decided for an option and send the card back. He knew very well the chances were slim at best, but hey, why not try your luck, he thought.
